Unpopular opinion: Harlequin

Just a general point about the album which maybe we need to keep reminding ourselves of : it is supposed to be as sung by a deranged woman. So a lot of the songs start off nice and smooth but gradually become a bit unhinged.

can we just accept that its a flop. shes doing katy perry numbers and yall are making excuses for her 

ASIB was a "side music project" and is one of her most commercially successful albums to date......... 

im just pumped for LG7 since she said that albums nothing like this project

dont get me wrong this album shows her versatility but something about it just feels very MEH to me

ASIB had Shallow that was purposely created and promoted as the lead song of the movie to promote it, it was intended to smash to help sell tickets and win awards

HQ is literally just a passion project, it's just lady Gaga releasing a body of work because she wants to. it's not meant to pull numbers, it's not the movie's official soundtrack and it's not going to be lobbied for oscars and grammys

comparing it to katy perry is just worms for brains behaviour. 143 is a highly anticipated pop comeback that should be doing chromatica level numbers but the fact it's doing not much better than lady Gaga's jazz covers passion project says way more about 143 than HQ

you don't have to like it but to brand it a flop is just stupid. there's a reason she called it LG6.5 instead of 7...

Gaga is significantly MORE popular than KP by every metric in this moment. the fact that shes doing the same numbers paints a very simple picture. when Gaga releases something that ppl LIKE, they arent afraid to support it - case in points DWAS - ppl are just not here for this project and it doesnt matter what mental gymnastics u have to achieve to convince yourself otherwise - the fact of the matter is, the GP and some little monsters arent here for it. if it was quality work, she would riding the wave of DWAS and would have another top 10 hit on the hot 100.

we dont have to go back and forth theres no changing the other's opinion. 

all i know is LG7 is gonna be great and i cannnnot wait for POP music cuz thats what i love most from Gaga.

HQ is quality work though, the album just hasn't been WIDELY promoted... that's just fact, not opinion :fail:

you're the one doing mental gymnastics trying to put a side project on the same level as a pop album

HQ wasn't made for numbers and streams, it was made for fun... so sad to see how music is lost as artform these days

saying she would have a top 10 hit on HQ is just straight delusion :rip:

People listened to the soundtrack of ASIB for the same reason that everyone listens to soundtracks: because they liked the movie and the music, were touched by the story and got attached to the characters.

Joker FÀD is not even OUT yet. :fail: I have no doubt that the album will get more popular when people start watching the movie.

Also, a lot of ASIB was very much adult contemporary, aka one of the most likable and popular genres for the GP, across all ages and genders, aka the only songs that someone who doesn't listen to music much will sing at karaoke. You can't seriously compare this to an album that mixes more vintage sounds like jazz and musical theater.

You popped my heart seams, all my bubble dreams

LOL just cuz i have a different opinion doesnt mean im insufferable. when ARTPOP was released i loved that record even though a lot of the GP and her fans didnt like it compared to her albums. i just dont like this record and the numbers for this side project arent great no matter how you wanna twist it. its called being normal fan who doesnt stan every single thing she does. you have the right to stan everything single thing she does but i dont have to.

I think Happy Mistake should be a single.

I've heard so many people say they like the song and her performance on Kimmel was beautiful. It needs a proper chance and not get the ARUTW treatment.

I think she can compete with herself on the charts. 

According to Gaga I'm a ****ing rad bitch

She sounds like her nose is blocked on some songs and even though I love the album, it disturbs me a lot

 

I don't like the way she sings Smile but the production is AMAZING on that song.

 

And Happy Mistake's bridge could be better .

I felt like a lot of the vocals on Chromatica were also kind of nasal
